4/10/96 No news is....no news. According to a recent interview with David Byrne (former Talking Head and figurehead of Luaka Bop-A.R.Kane's most recent label), A.R.Kane are no longer with Luaka Bop and have no album planned. Alex and Rudy apparently live on different continents, leading lives outside the music industry.

6/10/96 Rudy resurfaces with sister Margaret on vocals as Sufi. Life's Rising, the first album is available from Virgin in the UK and through Caroline in the US and the second album is due this fall on Secret Agent. (Look's like more label hopping - can no label make a home for Alex?) Ambient version of one track from Life's Rising (extended and sans vocals) appears on the Virgin Compilation "Ambient 4:Isolationism."
